CHAPTER 161: CHAPTER 161: SOPHIE: DADDY, CAN YOU COME FIND ME?

The doctor said she suffered a head injury and was frightened, resulting in a severe psychological trauma, which is why she refuses to speak.

There was nothing they could do, they couldn’t get any other information from her, so they could only rely on the sole clue to send her back.

The little girl’s face was round and always had big bright eyes, sitting there motionless, like a doll.

To be honest, Kyle Sterling was reluctant to send her back.

He was really fond of this little girl.

Kyle sighed and helped the little girl put on her small backpack.

"Little mute, although I don’t know why you got so badly hurt, I know the Lancaster Family is unstable. Next time you encounter any bad guys, just call The Sinclair Family, they will appear, we’ll protect you, alright?"

The little girl continued to nod her head.

"Go on, don’t look back, I’m leaving now."

The little girl pursed her lips, gathered the courage to take a few steps toward the Lancaster Group, and looked back to see Kyle silently wiping his tears.

The little girl ran back and hugged Kyle tightly, "Brother."

Kyle looked at her in surprise and, feeling touched, started to sob like a baby.

"Now you know how to call me, alright, just for that ’brother,’ I’ll protect you for a lifetime."

"Alright, stop crying, don’t make it look like a life and death farewell, go on now."

The little girl looked back every three steps, pursed her lips, and entered the Lancaster Group.

Kyle turned his head and secretly wiped away his tears.

Really having no self-control.

...

The little girl with her backpack went to the front desk and looked up, "Looking for Daddy, Damien Lancaster, Daddy."

The two receptionists looked at the little bundle in front, asking, "Little girl, who are you looking for?"

The little girl blinked her eyes, "Daddy."

A receptionist walked over, squatted down, and looked at the cute little girl, continuing to ask, "Little girl, who is your daddy?"

"Damien Lancaster!"

She only had these five words in her mind, Daddy, Damien Lancaster, Damien Lancaster, Daddy.

"Damien Lancaster?" a receptionist exclaimed, "Little girl, are you looking for the wrong person? Damien Lancaster is our president, he doesn’t have any children."

"Daddy..."

The two receptionists were utterly bewildered.

They had never heard of their president having a daughter.

Looking at the cute little girl with a head injury, the receptionist patiently asked, "Little girl, are you lost? Do you have your daddy’s phone number? Big sister can call your daddy to come and get you, okay?"

The little girl shook her head.

She didn’t know.

She only knew Damien Lancaster was Daddy.

She couldn’t remember anything else.

Seeing the little girl was reluctant to speak much, the receptionist was a bit at a loss.

"Why don’t we help you find an uncle police officer, let them help you find Daddy, okay?"

The little girl furrowed her small brow.

At this moment, the receptionist saw Rachel Shaw walking by, since Rachel frequently visited the company, everyone knew her.

The receptionist wasn’t sure if what the little girl said was true, so they wanted to ask Rachel Shaw.

Rachel Shaw was someone by Damien Lancaster’s side, naturally knowing everything.

"Miss Shaw."

Rachel Shaw stopped.

"There’s a little girl here saying she’s President Lancaster’s daughter, can you come and take a look?"

Rachel Shaw abruptly took off her sunglasses, widened her eyes at the person ahead.

Muttering uncontrollably, "Sophie!"

It was actually Sophie!

It was actually Sophie! Her?

Rachel Shaw turned pale, hurriedly walked forward, staring hard at Sophie, repeatedly confirming, dearly hoping she was mistaken.

But the person before her was indeed Sophie, she wasn’t mistaken!

Was she back from the dead?

Sophie raised her head, watching the woman suddenly approaching her, Sophie fearfully stepped back, her round eyes staring unblinkingly at Rachel Shaw.

This woman was strange, why was she staring at her with such eyes?

"Miss Shaw? Miss Shaw? Do you know this little girl? Is she really President Lancaster’s child?"

"Miss Shaw?"

Rachel Shaw, snapped back to reality by the receptionist’s call, her lips quivering, "No, I don’t know her, Damien doesn’t have a child, how could this be Damien’s child."

Sophie must not return.

The family already had two children, if Sophie returned.

Would there still be a place for her in the Lancaster Family?

Rachel Shaw raised her head angrily at the receptionists, "Haven’t you all been working here long enough to know if Damien has a child or not? You believe this? If another child claims to be Damien’s, would you believe it too?"

"We..." The receptionists, scolded by Rachel Shaw, lowered their heads.

They didn’t even know what they did wrong, wasn’t it normal to inquire to avoid mistakes? Was there a need to get so angry?

Rachel Shaw, feeling guilty, said, "Why are you still standing around? Hurry up and have someone throw this child out."

Knowing Rachel Shaw’s status, they didn’t dare oppose, quickly called two security guards to drive Sophie out.

Sophie glared fiercely at Rachel Shaw.

This bad woman was lying, why was she so bad?

She clearly remembered Daddy’s name was Damien Lancaster.

But she said no, and wanted her thrown out.

Sophie tightly hugged the column beside her, refusing to leave, finally squeezing two words from her mouth, "Liar!"

She’s lying!

Find Daddy, she wanted to find Daddy...

"Why are you still standing around? Throw her out!"

Sophie was pulled and fell hard on the ground.

At that moment, a furious shout came from behind, "Stop!"

Rachel Shaw felt a chill down her back.

As he turned around, Kyle Sterling strode forward, the icy presence forcing everyone around him to back off.

Kyle saw Sophie fall to the ground and immediately picked the little girl up, holding her as if she were a precious treasure.

The little girl’s eyes and nose were red, as if she’d been greatly wronged.

Kyle felt a bit of heartache.

"Little mute, did it hurt when you fell?"

Sophie shook her head.

"Tell your brother, who bullied you, and your brother will beat them up for you."

Sophie directly pointed at Rachel Shaw.

Rachel Shaw’s pupils contracted, it was actually someone from the Sterling Family.

The Sterling Family, like the Lancaster Family, is a noble family in Aethelgard that no one can afford to cross.

How did Sophie get involved with the Sterling Family?

"Young Master Sterling?" Rachel Shaw quickly changed her attitude, "Young Master Sterling, what are you doing here, who is this child to you?"

Kyle gave her a sudden glance, "What were you just barking about?"

Rachel Shaw pointed to herself, "Me? Barking?"

"Not willing? Yes, barking sounds better than you do."

Rachel Shaw’s mouth twisted forcefully, almost unable to maintain her expression, "Young Master Sterling... I..."

"She didn’t let you in? Tried to throw you out?" Kyle looked at Sophie.

Sophie nodded.

Kyle sneered, "Apologize to my little one."

Rachel Shaw’s face didn’t look good, "Young Master Sterling."

"Don’t make me say it a second time."

Kyle’s face was very cold, and Rachel Shaw was stunned, not speaking for half a day, she bit her lip, seeing Kyle was serious.

Rachel Shaw didn’t want it to escalate, afraid it would reach Damien Lancaster’s ears, "I’m sorry, I was anxious just now, I was wrong."

"Little mute, will you forgive her?"

Sophie turned her head, resting her little head on Kyle’s shoulder, ignoring Rachel Shaw.

Rachel Shaw’s face turned blue and purple, looking very unpleasant.

Seeing Sophie having a temper, Kyle smirked.

"Can’t you see? She hasn’t forgiven you."

Rachel Shaw bit her lip hard, lowering her head, "Sorry, I’m sorry, I was wrong, sorry, sorry, sorry..."

Sophie covered her ears, not wanting to listen anymore.

Only then did Kyle speak, "Enough, no one wants to hear you bark!"

"You!" Rachel Shaw took a deep breath.

Endure!

The Sterling Family, she can’t afford to cross!

And it can’t escalate, it can’t reach Damien Lancaster’s ears.

Kyle turned around, carrying Sophie away.

Sophie still had her little hand out, indicating she wanted to go find her dad.

Because right now, in Sophie’s mind, there was only Damien Lancaster; she could only find him.

Kyle understood, "Don’t worry, if you can’t get in, let him come find you. Our family has taken care of you for almost half a month, we won’t sell you."

Rachel Shaw was completely panicked.

Ridiculous, she had gone through so much trouble.

Sophie ended up not dying, and now was in Kyle’s hands, coming back to find Damien Lancaster.

Everything was out of her plan.

No, she was about to marry Damien Lancaster soon, she couldn’t afford to make mistakes at this time.

Kyle carried Sophie back to the car.

Sophie hung her head, looking quite sad.

Kyle pinched Sophie’s soft cheek, "Little mute, don’t be sad, actually, I have your dad’s contact information, you can contact him."

Sophie immediately raised her head, spreading her little hands.

Kyle sighed helplessly, turned on his phone, and handed it to her.

Although the two families were sworn enemies, contact information was still available.

Kyle, "Do you know how to type?"

Kyle leaned in and found that this little guy who looked five or six years old was quite good at typing.

Sophie quickly sent to Damien Lancaster:

"Dad."

"Dad, can you come find me?"

"Dad, I can’t find you."

Kyle saw the little guy typing earnestly, leaned in for another look.

Wait!

No way!

Kyle immediately snatched the phone back, eyes wide, "You’re using my phone to call him dad? Doesn’t that mean I’m calling him dad?"

Sophie looked at Kyle’s shocked expression, comfortingly patted him, "You’re my brother, you can call him dad too!"

Kyle, "..."

What the hell, calling Damien Lancaster dad.

If he called Damien Lancaster dad, wouldn’t his old man pull out a fifty-meter knife and chase him down?

At this time, Damien Lancaster was still in the office having a meeting.

The phone messages kept ringing.

He picked up the phone and glanced at it.

Kyle: "Dad!"

Kyle: "Dad, can you come find me?"

Kyle: "Dad, I can’t find you."

Damien Lancaster frowned.

Is Kyle losing it calling him dad?
